The light of Tiroda

Aarti Adarkar – a seventh grade student of the Zilla Parishad Prathmik Shalla came from humble beginnings. She lost her father when she was just an infant and was raised single-handedly by her mother – a nursery teacher at Tiroda and woman of limited means but unlimited optimism.

In school, she is popularly known as the health minister who keeps a thorough check of the cleanliness and hygiene standards. Her favourite subject is math and she consistently scores 80% in the subject. Whilst not solving mathematical equations, she participates in drawing, essay writing, kabaddi and kho-kho.
